All you need is love! And maybe a little Oxytocin too!
During this unique time in our lives when we are being told to isolate and keep our distance, I believe the level of anxiety and depression we are experiencing as a result has never been higher. The truth is that our body is not designed to be separate and alone, as we are social creatures and we depend on love, touching and affection to feel connection, and in fact our brains even produce a hormone to encourage it! What is this magical hormone you might say? It’s Oxytocin!
